Difficulties in Accessing Apolyton

[Gatekeeper]

Everyone:

Just curious ... is there some sort of maintenance going on in the background? I've been having a heckuva time getting to Apolyton all day/night Monday — especially so the Off Topic Forum.

And I know it's just Apolyton because every other Web site that's bookmarked comes up at its usual speed ... which is "normal."

I wasn't able to get on about an hour earlier. The server was up but the processes were very slow. They might had something big running for awhile.

[Richard Cranium]

About an hour ago, I was getting "500 Internal Server Error"s. Things are working fine now.

[Urban Ranger]

The Curse struck again! It attacked a thread on the OTF. That's why Apolyton was so slow...

[Smash]

Ya! what are you guys up to now?This site hasn't been very Smash freindly today.

[Urban Ranger]

The cursed thread is "Gloifying Confederates." Please close or delete it, Markos, Ming, Dan, Matt, whoever.

[Hueij]

Hm... still can't get to Off-Topic. The rest is fine.

[DanQ]

GameStats tech admin. is aware of the problem and is working on it.

I will relay more info when I know more.

Is it only the OTF? A lot of the forums seem slower

I'm finding the OT impossible to access, the other Forums are reasonably accessible. The problem with the other Forums is posting. Hit the Send button and there's no sign of the Message Sent screen. Wait about 5 minutes, hit the Back button, and there's your message posted in the forum. It's happened, somehow, without acknowledgement the message has been sent. Thus a plethora of double and triple posts.

There is now a mangled thread in Civ 2 / General; the author was BuilderR

The curse strikes again...

There's also a thread in the Strategy Forum - "Sabotage????" - which, when clicked on, responds with a message that there's no data in the document, and to try again later. I did. Same response. I don't know whether it's my browser or the thread that's the problem.

The sabotage thread just gives me a blank page, so it's not just you. Also, new posts to the Med Mod 4 thread in CTP-General are all added to page 1 instead of page 2 where they should go.

The blank page from the Sabotage thread is still happening at the time of this post although the problems with posting and getting into the Off-Topic forum seem to have gone.

Just tried the "Sabotage" thread again, got the same result - no data in the document, try again later.
